Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Buccaneers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Buccaneers spent the 105th overall pick on Hunter Nourzad, a name most had 52 spots down the list.

Getting Wallace where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 26 they get a press-man option on the boundary, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick92 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They did well to land Dominick Puni in the 92nd overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick105 Rnd4 Hunter Nourzad
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hunter Nourzad this early at pick No. 105. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick 125 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali at the 220th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Frank Gore Jr.. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
The board fumbled Caedan Wallace all the way to the 253rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
